I am trying to fined any info on my Father Jozef's family in Poland, I have been told that he came from a village called ZIEMIANKA in the district of STANISLAWOW, but this is now in UKRAINA.

My father was born in 1920, and his fathers name was Wincenty Wiacek and I have been told that his mother was Anna MAJEWSKA, and that he had a sister KAROLINA she had a husband and child, but I have been told that all of his family died when Ukrain took over this part of Poland.

I have also been told that he had some cousin's in France?

If any one can help me please get back to me!
And thank you for reading this message.

Was Anna and Karolina basically live in the ny or nj area (after they traveled from europe)? I'm asking because my great grandmother's sisters had those names and I do have photos of them.

Hello Lionwolf.
Wincenty & Anna Wiacek ( MAJEWSKA), and their daughter KAROLINA along with her family(husband and child), (they did not travel from the village that they lived in,) all of them died when Ukrain took over this part of Poland. only my father traveled from Europe as he was in the polish army.
I only found out the names of my grandfather ,grandmother and aunty last year as I did and do not know any more about them.

Ah ok. I'm wondering if majewski/majewska is a common name. My great grandma they all came from a town that is currently in Ukraine but they were polish. http://www.geni.com/people/Magdalena-Majewska-Skretkowicz/60... that was the section of my family because a good number came over to America in the earlier 1900s but there were those that stayed over in Europe too. I just recently began the search myself because I found old photos in my grandma's house with the name written on back of some of.them. there's also a lot of unknown people which I'm assuming are majewski that lived in europe but no one in my family has knowledge of them. I'm assuming it's due to the fact when the great grandma who had connection and ties with them that didn't get passed on down the generations hence lost family.

Also do you know what your grandparents looked like? I can always email my mystery photos to see if you recognize anyone and to see if some of my mystery photos can get names if there is a connection.

Thank you for getting back to me.
I am sorry that I am of no help to you !
As I said I only found out my grandparents names last year and I do not have any knowledge of my polish side of the family apart from what I have posted in my original message, I do not even have a photo of my father as my family split up when I was little.

We may be looking for the same family's.?

I think it's very possible. I've been on the hunt on finding information for only the past 2 months or so. Also I just have some very old photos from the 1800s that came from over there and a few from 1900-1950s where I don't know who the people are but I have their photos lol

My father Jozef was born in June 1920 so his mother Anna was born in the late 1800s-earley1900s,
I may be able to recognise him if I had a photo! it worth a gamble if you send me a few photos to look at?

Not sure if I have a photo of him but might have one of the mother. Jozef was basically the same.age as my grandfather. His mother was a majewski. I'll send whatever unknown photos I have later on
